Chapter five hundred and seventeenth generous gift
Two days later.
Eunuch Yang came to Cui's house.
Eunuch Yang is here to deliver the imperial edict. In the imperial edict, Shen You was officially granted the rank of Mighty General of the second rank, Feng Shaojun was granted the title of wife of the second rank, and Shen You's son Shen Xu was granted the title of Jinyiwei Baihu.
In other words, Shen Xu, who is only one and a half years old, can receive Lumi from hundreds of Jinyiwei households every year.
In addition, the emperor also rewarded him with a thousand taels of gold, a bloody horse and a piece of soft gold armor that could withstand swords and guns.
The couple kowtowed respectfully and thanked each other. Little Brother Xu also knelt down, kowtowed three times, and said in a sweet voice: "The Emperor's kindness is so great."
Eunuch Yang burst out laughing after hearing this, and let Shen You accept the imperial edict. His eyes fell on Brother Xu's handsome face: "Brother Xu, do you still remember our family?"
Brother Xu was old enough to remember things, but he was very courageous, so he shook his head.
Brother Xu inherited the good looks of his parents. He is fair, plump and handsome with the innocence of a child. When he smiles, he shows his baby teeth, which can melt people's hearts.
Eunuch Yang couldn't help but reached out and hugged Brother Xu, smiled at Feng Shaojun and said, "Mrs. Shen gave birth to a good son. She is really a blessed person."
Actually, Eunuch Yang was afraid that Feng Shaojun would show off his face and ignore him in public, so he used his child to talk to him.
Feng Shaojun's heart is as exquisite as seven orifices, how could he not know it?
Seeing his wily and majestic adoptive father being so cautious and smiling, Feng Shaojun felt angry and amused, and responded calmly: "What Eunuch Yang said is true. Our husband and wife have such an only son and regard it as a treasure. For him, We are willing to do whatever we do. The so-called love of licking a calf is just like that."
He stabbed Eunuch Yang, neither softly nor hard.
Eunuch Yang felt guilty on behalf of his master, and his smile was a bit sarcastic.
A smile flashed in Shen You's eyes, and he reached out to hug Brother Xu and retreated first. The servants and guards who were standing aside also retreated completely. Soon, only Eunuch Yang and Feng Shaojun were left in the main hall. people.
Eunuch Yang quickly took something out of his sleeve and stuffed it into Feng Shaojun's hand: "Young Master, the emperor ordered our family to pass down oral instructions to you. From now on, you will be entrusted with the errands of secret agents in the border towns. Twenty will be allocated every year. I’ll give you ten thousand taels of silver and leave it for you to recruit people.”
Feng Shaojun raised his eyebrows in surprise and glanced down.
What Eunuch Yang thrust into her hand was a palm-sized booklet. When she opened the booklet, she saw that it was densely written. After the name, there was information such as age, identity, and when to join the secret guard.
A rough calculation shows that there are at least fifty such secret sentries recorded in this booklet. Some of them are soldiers in the border army, and there are even fourth-rank generals. There are businessmen who specialize in doing business at the border, and some in teahouses and taverns. Guys, there are flower girls in brothels...
Three teachings and nine streams, everything is included.
Judging from the number of people alone, it is not that many. But think about it, the border town is thousands of miles away from the capital. The young King Yan was alone and had to work slowly to have these secret sentries placed everywhere. Although he could not do anything big , the ears and eyes are very well-informed.
With these manpower as a base, and then secretly recruiting people, with her ability, within a few years, the size of the secret guard can be expanded several times. The husband and wife can control the border army, one in the dark and one in the dark. Or, You can train some spies to sneak into the nomadic tribes outside the customs, spy on the enemy, and instigate lobbying...
All in all, there are so many things that can be done.
Feng Shaojun didn't say anything, but flipped through the book page by page.
Eunuch Yang was also very familiar with Feng Shaojun's temper. He knew that she was just taking the job. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and laughed softly: "After you go to the border town, you will send a message back to Beijing every five days. If there is an emergency,
It's too late to report the matter, so you can deal with it first."
Feng Shaojun raised his eyelids, half-smiling but not smiling: "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that I will harbor resentment, cause trouble secretly, and disturb peace at the border?"
There is no doubt that Feng Shaojun definitely has such ability.
The old and cunning Eunuch Yang was not troubled by this proposition. He smiled without changing his face and said: "The emperor is a wise king with a broad mind. He employs people without doubting others and uses them without suspicion. He is worthy of the loyalty of his ministers. This point
, you know better than anyone else."
Feng Shaojun snorted: "Yes, for all the virtuous things the Emperor has, he is also a unique good husband and father that is hard to find in the world."
Eunuch Yang: "..."
Eunuch Yang once again accepted the punishment on behalf of his master and silently did it himself.
Feng Shaojun didn't sarcastic anymore. The matter was at this point, and it was useless to say more.
"No matter what, I have to thank Eunuch Yang." Feng Shaojun did not want to call him foster father anymore, and only called Eunuch Yang. Hearing this, Eunuch Yang felt sad.
Hey! For the sake of the emperor, our family even lost our adopted daughter.
Eunuch Yang cheered up and whispered: "There is one more thing I need to tell you. When you set off, the eldest grandson of Prince Zhao, Prince Fu, will also be traveling with you. With them, you will be safe along the way. If
If they dare to cause chaos along the way, just take action to deal with them. The Emperor will support you!"
Feng Shaojun nodded slightly in agreement.
"The Emperor will keep what you said in mind and will definitely give you an explanation within five years at most."
Eunuch Yang took a deep look at Feng Shaojun: "Shaojun, you are a smart person and know the principle of doing better than doing better. The emperor has apologized to you and your wife, and is trying his best to make up for it. Even if you are not happy in your heart, don't show it, so the emperor
Embarrassing.”
These last few sentences are a kind reminder from Eunuch Yang to Feng Shaojun.
Feng Shaojun and Eunuch Yang looked at each other: "I have written down everything Eunuch Yang said."
Eunuch Yang thought for a moment and then said, "You don't have to worry about the Qiu family's affairs. Our family will handle them properly."
Feng Shaojun was not surprised.
After something like this happened, Emperor Qing'an would no longer allow Jiang to live in the world. He didn't take action now because he was concerned about Shen You. When Shen You left the capital, Jiang would be seriously ill and pass away.
…
Half an hour later, Eunuch Yang got on the carriage and returned to the palace to resume his duties.
Shen You asked Feng Shaojun in a low voice: "Eunuch Yang has been talking to you for so long, what did he say?"
Feng Shaojun did not hide anything from him and came one by one.
Shen You frowned, and joy flashed in his eyes: "This is a good thing."
The emperor gave money to people and also gave them authority. After Feng Shaojun went to the border town, he was able to get started quickly. It was much better than starting from scratch.
Feng Shaojun looked at Shen You who looked relaxed and happy. He really wasn't pretending, he was really willing to go to the border to lead troops to train and fight.
"We will leave Beijing in a few days," Feng Shaojun said softly: "Go to Qiu's house and say goodbye to Mrs. Qiu!"
Once we leave, heaven and man will be separated forever.
The scene between mother and son should finally come to an end.
Shen You's brows moved again, obviously hearing the implication of Feng Shaojun's words. After a long silence, he nodded: "Okay."
